On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:

How do you start finding opportunities in a newly created niche, and how do you find the factor that differentiates you from others in your field?
Should a new author stick to self publishing, or is it worth it to chase a literary agent?
Was LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman mistaken when he said: "If you are not embarrassed by the first version of your product, you've launched too late?"
Should you bring in a more experienced partner for your new business -- even if you'd really rather go it alone?
How do you price a new business?
When learning to run the family business, how do you strike a healthy balance between respect for tradition and courage to try a new approach?
How do you come up with a great new business name?
Should you stay or should you go when the startup in which you have equity is run by a toxic b-hole?
Recommendation of the Week: The China Hustle
Shoutouts to Carisha Cabasa and her brothers, and American Dream University!
